- Beagles-Walker
Wednesday afternoon at 2:30 o’clock Wm. H. Beagles, proprietor of the Napa Steam Feed Store, and Miss Fannie J. Walker, were united in marriage in the presence of many invited friends. The ceremony took place in the Methodist church, Rev. Jno. Coyle tying the nuptial knot. In front of the pulpit was a profusion of beautiful flowers, white predominating, artistically arranged.
Mrs. J.H. Beagles presided at the organ, and the bridal party came into church and marched up the aisle to the merry peals of a wedding march. First came the parents of the bride and other relatives, then the bride and groom, followed by the bridesmaid, Miss Lou Beagles, and groomsman, Mr. John Walker. The bride looked beautiful in a dress of white, with orange blossoms on her brow and a long flowing bridal-veil. The groom was dressed in conventional black.
The ceremony that made them one was quickly performed. As they took the afternoon train for San Francisco, wheat and corn were showered upon the happy couple.
Mr. Beagles has lived in town or in its immediate vicinity since early childhood. His bride is the daughter of Mr. G.T. Walker, and she has resided on the “Big Ranch” for several years. Both have many friends in the valley who will wish them a long life of unalloyed happiness. They will return in a few days and will occupy a house on Steward street, west of Main.
